Rider Profile

Best ForThis lightweight small-displacement sportbike suits beginner to intermediate riders who want a nimble machine to build skills and confidence on.
PurposeIt is designed as an entry-level sport commuter, ideal for zippy city riding and light spirited backroad fun rather than outright performance.
Rider FitIts low seat height and very light dry weight make it extremely manageable for shorter or lighter riders and easy to handle at low speeds.
CharacterThe FXR 150 has a peppy, high-revving single-cylinder character that rewards keeping the engine spinning rather than relying on outright torque.
Not Ideal ForIt is not suited for highway touring, carrying a passenger long distances, or riders seeking strong high-speed power delivery.

2001 Suzuki FXR 150 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 760mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2001 Suzuki FXR 150, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
